Fairlessness or the Myth of Fairness

the phrase that never pays

My concept of fairness is due to my threat vs benefit mental program that assigns significance by comparing the value of one thing against another.

The level of importance I place on my judgment determines my degree of need for defense against the threat of losing validation of my rightness.

What is fairness? Why is it important to me?

The idea that I believe in fairness derives from my belief that I can negotiate personal value. This process distinguishes things according to my evaluation of their contributions to my view of the world as it “should” be.
